There’s No More Denying It: Trump Is Openly Racist

This year’s freakish presidential election has now devolved into
an ethnic brouhaha between two foreigners: A Mexican and a German.

The “Mexican” is Gonzalo Curiel, a U.S. federal judge who was
born, raised, and educated in Indiana. The “German” is Donald Drumpf — also
known as Donald Trump, the Republican nominee for president.

Drumpf has two fraud cases against him in Judge Curiel’s court,
leading the GOP standard bearer to become unhinged over the idea that a
“foreigner” would be allowed to pass judgment on an upstanding American citizen
like him.

“He’s a Mexican,” The
Donald has complained about the jurist — who happens to be a full-blooded
American citizen.

By Drumpf’s standards, though, not even he himself can claim
pure-bloodedAmericano heritage
— only Native Americans can claim that, and even they immigrated from afar
centuries ago.

In fact, The Donald’s grandfather, Friedrich Drumpf,immigrated to the United Statesfrom Kallstadt, Germany about 120
years ago — and Anglicized his name from Drumpf to Trump.

Still, the GOP’s racist and nativist flag bearer insists that an
American with Mexican genes should be disqualified from overseeing the fraud
suits against Trump University. The judge would inherently be biased, Trump
claims, against the candidate who’s promised to “build a wall” between the
United States and Mexico.

So, does his screwy claim that one’s background trumps one’s
commitment to fairness also mean that a Muslim judge should be disqualified
from any trial of Trump’s wrongdoings, since he’s promised to ban all Muslim
immigrants from entering the United States?

Finally, it’s time to say the obvious: Donald is not just
plainspoken, nor is he merely trying to get media coverage. He’s deranged and
openly racist, and a manic threat to anyone he dislikes — which is everyone not
named Trump… or Drumpf.

Thought for the day

“Charlottesville is a great place that’s been very badly hurt over the last couple of days. I own, actually, one of the largest wineries in the United States. It is in Charlottesville.”

Donald Trump, responding to a question whether he would go to Charlottesville to offer support and comfort as so many Presidents have done in the past.

Quick fact check: Donald Trump does not own the winery; his idiot son Eric does under the name Eric Trump Wine Manufacturing LLC. And at 36,000 cases annual production, the winery is not even the largest winery in Virginia, never mind the United States.
